On Tuesday, the @EUparliament passed a groundbreaking policy framework that will make electric vehicle batteries sold in 🇪🇺 more sustainable – and can serve as a blueprint for battery policies worldwide.🔋⚡️
Here are 4 key aspects of this policy in a short 🧵.👇

1⃣Responsible and sustainable #mining.
The regulation mandates due diligence obligations for companies selling batteries in 🇪🇺.
Companies are required to identify and mitigate social and environmental risks in the supply chain of cobalt, lithium, nickel, and natural graphite.

2⃣Lower emissions in battery production.

My entire adult life I've worked on #decarbonization technologies guided by the question, "what can I contribute to humanity to help evolve us into a more advanced alien species?" #Lithium for batteries was a good place to start.
So I spent half a decade developing technologies and natural resources for a new world that emits less CO2 and requires less mining than the old world. However lithium will always have a tiny footprint even at full scale. That's actually the point.
Meanwhile, we produce almost as much structural metal today as we produce coal. And because metal makes advanced alien species possible, it will be produced forever. Even "as time goes to infinity", primary metal will be needed because nothing is "infinitely recyclable".

1. Batteries: Lithium is most commonly used in batteries, particularly rechargeable batteries. These batteries are used in a wide range of devices, from smartphones and laptops to electric cars and power tools.
2. Pharmaceuticals: Lithium has been used for decades as a treatment for bipolar disorder. It helps to stabilize mood and reduce symptoms of mania and depression.
2. Saudi Aramco likely made net income of just over $32 billion, according to the median estimate in a Bloomberg survey of analysts. That would mark a slowdown from a year earlier — similar to other oil firms that have already reported
3. Energy stocks- a look at the technicals adds to the bearish sentiment: The gauge’s 50-day moving average fell below its 200-day average last week in a so-called death cross, the first time since late 2018. That often signals that further selling pressure is in store.
Die deutsche Auto-Industrie war jahrzehntelang das Aushängeschild der deutschen Industrie. Das ändert sich jetzt. Wie es dazu kam, und was #China damit zu tun hat.
1⃣ Nach dem Ende der Pandemie hatte #China plötzlich bis auf Japan alle Konkurrenten als Auto-Exporteur überholt. Der Grund: Der Absatz von Elektro-Fahrzeugen stieg sprunghaft an. Dahinter steckte eine Jahrzehnte lange Strategie
2⃣ Seit den 80ern versuchte #China, eine eigenständige Autoindustrie aufzubauen. Dafür zwang man zunächst westliche Autobauer in sogenannte Joint-Ventures. So sollten chinesische Staatsunternehmen an westliche Technologie kommen. Trotz vieler Subventionen funktionierte das nicht

#Lithium is falling off the cliff like we said it would 6 months ago > 80% cash margins always do. Beware of those stating outperformance, at this point, review the previous cycle bottom for an indication of what's in store.
Those in #commodities for a few cycles know that > 80% cash margins never last as they either kill demand and/or stimulate supply (particularly with an incoming recession that kills durable good demand)

Thought of the day: Recency bias from #commodity peak when everything in the rear vision mirror looks "solid" is an optical illusion, around the bend a cliff is coming into sight a "recession", often stockprices drop 75% plus. Demand can get slaughtered at the margin.
#lithium & #coal are great case studies for those of our followers who don't understand nothing is rare at 80% cash margins and 20% cost.

While balance sheets are materially improved on 2020 levels, so few 95% corrections, but 50-65% are still reality with 75% spot falls from peaks.
Where is the alignment of interest? Avoid the asset collectors, focus in on the performance collectors.
Watch out for the specialists who want their 5 minutes of fame to extend for 40 minutes.
Follow the multi cycle generalists who have seen it all, they are not anchored in peak cycles whereas specialists are.

What specialists never say?
It's time to sell as valuations are above to collapse by 75%
What seasoned generalists, always do?
Scaled out prior to the peak and have moved on to fresh asymmetric themes.

#cyclicals we have sent 35 years refining our technique, buy when on low price to book ranges, with low spot price near cost curve outcomes.
Spent 35yrs ...
Sell when on high price to book ranges and 60-80% cash margins above cost curves.
Hence #lithium and #coal peaks were easy....
Remember the rule, there is no rarity at 80% margins.

I came across lithium in 1991 during pharmacology semester 2nd MBBS.
I saw its use during my psychiatry postings. Its most common use was in mania & in bipolar disorder.
Lithium regulates certain neurotransmitters in the brain stabilizing the mood of the patient completely.

Lithium regulates certain neurotransmitters in the brain stabilizing the mood of the patient completely.
It prevents further episodes of mania/depression when patient is compliant & actually improves the patient's performance in all walks of life.
It is very well tolerated by most patients. However, regular monitoring of blood levels & follow up with the doctor is most important.

#Lithium is a very valuable tool in #psychiatry
It has saved more patients than all the help lines across the world have done.
We should thank Dr John Cade an Australian doctor who found the use of lithium & published it in 1949.
He used it on himself to check if it was safe.

While many are sharing the great news about India's #LithiumInIndia discovery, a very important element has been overlooked.
In this short thread I discuss what this means for India in terms of #Dedollarization, how this will affect Indian currency & also the upcoming politics.

1. Chile - 9.3
2. India - 5.9 (just discovered)
3. Australia - 3.8
4. Argentina - 2.7
5. China - 2

With De-dollarisation, the currency will reflect the value of our resources
which means that this and any other discovery would result in dramatically appreciating our currency.
However, just because we have reserves doesn't mean we'll become producers. Mining, #Lithium extraction industry etc will have to set up and guess what this will result in?

All psychiatric medications need to be carefully monitored by a prescriber when their patient is moving to a ketogenic diet as a treatment for mental illness or neurological disorder. (1/6)
Two important psychiatric medications to pay attention to when using a ketogenic diet are anticonvulsants and lithium. Their blood levels can change early on in treatment. (2/6)
